the alley. All of this goes to show that
Murray's story is made up for his pro-
lection, and he is, of course, corroborated
by interesting parties. Miss Sylvester
is still very low, and it is not certain
that she will recover, although her con-
dition last night was somewhat
favorable.
PUBLIC SYMPATHY
with Miss Sylvester is very warm, and
the hope for her recovery is equally as
strong as the desire for Murry's pun
ishment. Several subscriptions have
already been started, and if she lives
she will not need to apply to any
employment bureaus to secure a
position. The firm of Barnes, Hengerer,
DeSmon IL Co., have offered her a Situa-
ton in their store. The st. Anthony
hospital has offered her the best of care
free Of charge until her recovery.
Cal p. Il. Walker collected
500 yesterday, and the firm of
Rowe d. Grove started a subscription
upon which amounts aggregating $500
were put down during the afternoon.
Murry was arraigned in the municipal
court yesterday morning upon the
charge of assault in the second degree.
His attorney, j. w. Arctander, said he
was ready for an examination,
but the hearing was postponed
until Miss Sylvester can appear.
Murry'S bail was fixed at 81 800, but no
effort was made to secure it. Probably
it is thought that he is safer for the time,
being behind two stout walls of the
county jail, as public opinion is so
strong against him. There were rumors
all day that an attempt to lynch him
would be made, but the idea is secuted

IMMIGRATION COMMISSION.

From all appearances the Castle Gar
den commissioners of immigration are
not fit to hold Office single day longer.
The investigation now going on in New
York discovers systematic abuse of
their powers and privileges resulting in
the maltreatment of immigrants which
should call for the commissioners i'm
mediate discharge.
Not only have immigrants been per-
sonally ill-treated, but it appears that
eXtortion, which is little less than rob-
berry, has been practiced against them.
The trouble seems to be that the COM
misSiOnerS have been more mindful of
the political influence to be derived
from judicious distribution of fayors
attained through conscientious per-
Torrance of their duties. If in boss
ridden New York competent and care
full commissioners can not be obtained
under the present system of appoint
ment, the offices might be made fed
eral, and the appointeeS responsible to
the general government, as are the yari-
GUS port officers.
The country owes it to itself to main
tain yigilant guard over every avenue
of immigration, and careful super
vision over every immigrant, but those
it is willing to welcome to these shores
should be afforded every facility in
reaching their destination and should
be treated with every consideration.

A Sheriff Killed.

ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, Sept. "A
special from Flagstaff, Sept. 1, reports
that the report i'll regard to
Sheriff Mulvenon and posse having
been killed in attempting to arrest mem
beers of the waring TewksbHry and Ora
ham factions at Pleasant Valley in this
country is without foundation. A feud
of long standing between Tewksbury
and Graham was resumed two weeks
ago in an encounter at Pleasant Valley.
in which three men were killed. The
factions are cattle and sheep men, and
the fight is the outgrowth of conflicting
interests of two branches of Stock-groW-
ing OH the range. Last week Sheriff
Muivenon and posse left Prescott for
the scene of outlawry with the intention
of arresting all parties. The conflict
with outlaws has gained currency, but
it has been definitely ascertained that
no information whatever has been re-
ceiyed from Sheriff Mulyenon since his
departure from Prescott.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2.-ReportS
received from Flagstaff, AriZ., reiterate
the report that Sheriff Mulvernon, of
Yavapai county. was shot in an eneoun-
ter with the TewkSbufy-Graham out
laws in the Tonic basin. about 100 miles
south of here. He died soon after the
fight. Five of the deputy sheriffs with
him were wounded in the same fight.
Eleven of the outlaws are reported
killed. Mulvernon and his posse left
Prescott week ago with warrants for
the arrest of ten men who were impli-
Gated in the killing of three cowboys.
Three weeks ago a posse from here
joined them on the road. Nothing had
been heard from them directly until to-
day. Rumors of yesterday were dis
credited last night. The widest reports
are now in circulation and an armed
posse has gone to the relief of the dep
uty sheriffs.

Written for the Globe.
Why mE eyelids are weary, and heavy my
head,
And lie tucked away on hard, springless
On the second floor front of boarding house
fat
And naught stirs the night air, not even a
cat,
While about to fall into a sleep falls the Jar
Of the discordant thrums of a festive guitar
1t would lull me to sleep, were the music but
fair,
For of musical taste confess I've share,
But sorrowfnl ting and a doleful-like
''tum'
Would tend to make Job, with his patience,
feel glum,
SO toss and tumble and audibly war
'Gainst the fiend who picks on the festive
guitar.
Oh! would could snatch him. his frame
once to climb,
I'd deal out chastisement BETTING the crime.
I'd tear him, i'll haste, from the depths of his
room
And pitch him headlong down the stairs into
gloom,
And hasten the motion by planting scar
On the pants OF the man with the festive gui-
tar
Yes, I'd raise him so high with the toe of my
boot,
That he'd need, coming down. Baldwin's
famed parachute,
And I'd set off a rocket or two in his wake
Just to see the direction the English would
take.
Then I'd wait for the fall of this heavenly
star,
Who murders nights rest with his festive
guitar.
Should his body, on striking, display signs 20
life,
If single I'd force him to marry wife
With a superabundance of children and
And 'hell-hath-no-fur v like mother-in-
law.
Then I'd plaster him over With soft feathers
and tar,
This foolish young man with the festive gui
tar.
Tdinflict on his back twenty stripes of the
cat
And ID run him amuck against Killen, our
Pat,
If he'd stand all these lashes and blows yet
meier bawl,
He must sit thro' game where Eau Claire

Then I'd set him afloat without oar, sail or
spar,

A Wife and Her Lover.

DETROIT, Mich. Sept. about q
year ago Marshal w. Bauer, wealthy
Iowan, while residing in Burlington,
fell in love with Beatrice White, aged
seventeen. The girl encouraged him,
but while ON visit here last January
married one Edward Coon, and went
with him to live on farm at Dearborn,
this state. Bauer continued to write to
her, and urged the mother-ii-law to get
the pair divorced. A day or two ago
he suddenly appeared at the farm and
induced Mrs. Coon to accompany him to
this city. The husband followed and
found his wife waiting at the depot
here. She explained that Bauer had
enticed her into accompanying him,
and while the husband and wife were
repenting and forgiying, Bauer came
up and Implored Coon to get divorce
and let his wife go with him Bauer).
The husband ordered the impatient
lover away and took his wife home.

WHITE EARTH TROUBLE.

The Investigation made by the senate
subcommittee into the White Earth
trouble has developed little more than
what had already been known that the
disturbance was the outgrowth of per-
sonal feeling between Agent SHEEHAN
and the BEAULIEU family. The BEAU
LIEUs claim that they have been I'M
justly dealt with in being forced to
leave the reservation. and the agent
claims that he drove them out because
he thought it would be for the good of
the other 1,500 Indians on the reserva-
ton. 1t seems singular that personal
quarrel of this kind should be dignifed
with an investigation by committee
representing the highest legislative
body i'll the nation. But the real reason
why it was so dignified seems to have
crept out from remark dropped by Sen
ator MORGAN during the examination of
Agent SHEEHAN at Detroit the other
day. Senator MORGAN remarked that he
had reason to believe that Agent SHEE-
HAN had been backed by the Indian bu-
reau in his persecution of the BEAU
LIEUs. 1t is to be taken for granted that
Senator MORGAN had motive for expos
ing the conduct of the Indian bureau
in this matter. What that motive
is not apparent as yet, but will probably
be nnfolded when the committee makes
its report to congress The examina-
ton of SHEEHAN bordered on the in
QuiSitorial and if Messrs. DAWES and
MORGAN didn't find out from the witness
what they were after it is not because

TYPHOID FEVER.

ga Needless Waste OF Life' is the
title of striking story told by the city
health officer in this mornings GLOBE.
We have so frequently called attention
to the murderouS policy of permitting
the use of well water that we feel
constrained to insist upon it that the
united testimony of our physicians shall
be read in support of what the GLOBE
has heretofore said. The health stat
tiSticS for the last month show an
alarming prevalence of typhoid fever i'll
the city, and in nearly every case the
result OF using water from wells. We
are just now approaching the season of
the year when typhoid fever is usually
most prevalent. Shall we enter upon
the typhoid season with all these fever
generators i'll full flow, or shall the city
authorities Immediately order the
stopping up of all the wells within the
city limits? After reading what the
health officer has to say about it, there
should be no question as to what is to
be done.
